carry a balance. Cards or key tags are available for a one time fee of $25. Forms are
available in the office.

Matching Funds
Did you know that many companies will match your donations to the PTA? Matching fund
donations from your company are a benefit most of us forget to use. Most companies match
your donation dollar for dollar. So for every dollar you give the PTA gets two. This can
have a big impact on the PTA's ability to help provide resources to the school, teachers,
and most importantly the children. If your company offers matching funds, please take the
time to fill out the matching form from your company and bring it in to the PTA. Lafayette
PTA is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization.
